Judy Collins - The Bells Of Rhymney CAPO: 3rd Fret [Intro] [Verse 1] Oh what will you give me? Say the sad bells of Rhymney Is there hope for the future? Say the brown bells of Merthyr Who made the mine owner? Say the black bells of Rhondda And who robbed the miner? Say the grim bells of Blaina [Verse 2] Throw the vandals in court Say the bells of Newport All would be well if if if if Say the green bells of Cardiff Why so worried sisters? Why? Sang the silver bells of Wye And what will you give me? Say the sad bells of Rhymney [Verse 3] Oh what will you give me? Say the sad bells of Rhymney Is there hope for the future? Say the brown bells of Merthyr Who made the mine owner? Say the black bells of Rhondda And who robbed the miner? Say the grim bells of Blaina [Verse 4] They will plunder willy-nilly Say the bells of Caerphilly They have fangs they have teeth Shout the loud bells of Neath Even god is uneasy Say the moist bells of Swansea And what will you give me? Say the sad bells of Rhymney [Verse 5] Throw the vandals in court Say the bells of Newport All would be well if if if if Say the green bells of Cardiff Why so worried sisters? Why? Sang the silver bells of Wye And what will you give me? Say the sad bells of Rhymney [Outro] Oooh oooh oooh oooh Oooh oooh oooh oooh

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson évoque la tristesse et l'inquiétude à travers le carrefour des cloches que l'on entend dans différentes villes galloises. Les cloches s'interrogent sur l'avenir, questionnant l'injustice sociale et la souffrance des mineurs face aux propriétaires des mines. Leurs tonalités résonnent avec des préoccupations sur la dégradation humaine et les actes de vandalisme, tout en demandant qui est responsable de cette exploitation. Un sentiment d'urgence est ressenti, avec des appels à un changement et à la solidarité, tout en oscillant entre l'espoir et le désespoir.
